System and method for avoiding robot collisions using medical imaging

Systems and methods in accordance with embodiments of the present disclosure include receiving registration data including information about a location of an anatomical element in a surgical environment; defining a three-dimensional (3D) volume including anatomical elements in the surgical environment based on the registration data; and controlling the robotic arm within the surgical environment based on the defined 3D volume such that at least the robotic arm or one or more components attached to the robotic arm is prevented from passing through the defined 3D volume during movement of the robotic arm. 根据本公开的实施方案的系统和方法包括：接收配准数据，该配准数据包括关于解剖元素在外科手术环境中的位置的信息；基于该配准数据来限定外科手术环境中的包括解剖元素的三维(3D)体积；以及基于所限定的3D体积在外科手术环境内部控制机器人臂，使得至少机器人臂或附接到机器人臂的一个或多个部件避免在机器人臂的移动期间穿过所限定的3D体积。
